The Business of FIlm: Black Adam, The Banshees of Inisherin & Triangle of Sadness
James Cameron-Wilson looks at a UK box office that still appears in less than robust health, despite the arrival at #1 of Black Adam, starring Dwayne Johnson. This DC comic spin-off, however, James found plodding and lacking in humour. He was more enthusiastic about #2, Martin McDonagh's The Banshees of Inisherin, reuniting Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson from McDonagh's earlier film In Bruges. With Emily and The Last King dropping out of the top ten, James advises people to look out for Swedish Palme D'Or winner Triangle of Sadness.

Gadgets & Gizmos: Flying cars, solving leaves on the line & hearing the Earth's magnetic field
Steve Caplin tells Simon Rose about a flying car that you can now order, although as a car it might prove somewhat lacking. He celebrates 21 years of the iPod, marvels at a couple of Lenovo prototypes, discusses the deadline to use up old-fashioned stamps, plays a recording of what the Earth's magnetic field might sound like, wonders why it's taken until the production of the Sand Rover to solve the problem of leaves on the line and explains how the first piece of land has just been bought using an non-fungible token.

Thought for the Week

Thought for the Week: Educational Choice
As Rishi Sunak steps into the lead role in British politics, we look at the educational choices which have paved the way for him, and discuss how the search for a more egalitarian form of capitalism can reconcile opportunity for all with individual freedom. The degree to which parents take responsibility for that education, as Rishi's parents did for him, is critical — and that poses a significant question for the huge numbers of young people who are not enjoying a traditional family upbringing.

Whether your holdings are in market investments or property, the risk of losing capital value is always a concern. Adam Cox proposes a couple of techniques to help settle those concerns, drawing the distinction between entrepreneurial activity and investment of reserves, and cautioning against both mediocrity through excess caution and over-stretching in buying assets when you can't really afford them.
